Answer: $32.55 would be Jessica’s total bill

Step by step explanation:

Cost of her meal is $31.00

Leave a 5% tip

What is her total bill including tip = x

Step 1: Remove the percentage sign

5 / 100 = 0.05

Step 2: Amount of the tip * the total amount of bill

0.05 * 31 = $1.55

Step 3: Total Bill including the tip :

$31 + $1.55

= $32.55
